Stormy is one of those amazing vibrant people who make up the fabric of the state I call home. Texas is known for being big, loud, and eclectic, and Austin is especially part of the arts and music culture. Stormy LOVES living here, and there’s no wonder why. She’s a creative, smart senior who loves music and being active. She describes herself as, “very compassionate. I try to be a very loya[...]
These days, it's all about girl power, and I couldn't be happier about it. Girls have gone too long being told they are "too much". Too loud, too quiet, too heavy, too slender, too smart, too flighty, too driven, too ambitious, too introverted, too loving, too much. I don't believe any of these things are true. The girls I work with need to be told they are not too much...they are ENOUGH, just the[...]
On this Veterans Day, let us remember the service of our veterans, and let us renew our national promise to fulfill our sacred obligations to our veterans and their families who have sacrificed so much so that we can live free. We will not tire, We will not falter, We will not fail.” -Dan Lipinski This Veterans Day, as I do every year, I always try to take some time to remember the brave men[...]

How many times have we seen a perfectly styled You Tuber post their latest fabulous make up look that is heavy on the lipstick, contouring and extra winged liner? They always look oh so fabulous and oh so much more done up than I've ever dreamed of being. The Kardashians (for example) look incredible in their contour and lip kits, for reals! Most of my clients relate much more to Alicia Keys[...]
Hannah came to me for senior portraits with just one request: photos that captured her personality and her style. I couldn't have been more thrilled to bring that simple vision to life with a spunky, silly, and glam session (yes, we also got more serious, bohemian shots!) that showed off her love of life and celebrated the many accomplishments. Oh, and by the way? There certainly were a[...]
Anytime I get to incorporate over-the-knee suede boots, I am excited! Of course, getting to spend the day with this wonderful senior was the best part of the senior shoot you're about to see. Alyssa is a graduate from Vandegrift High School, where she is extremely active in swimming. She's part of club swimming, has been a four-year member of the varsity squad, and is an all-state swimmer.[...]
There’s really something to chronicling a legacy. As a photographer, I have the opportunity to do this with each of my clients, whether they’re coming in for their senior pictures or anything else. Each day we’re adding onto that legacy just by living our lives, and pictures are the best way to remember every step along the journey. Graduation is one of those big steps in Delaney’s life, a[...]
Maybe you haven’t met Ashley, but when you do, you’ll feel like you’ve always known her. She has this wonderful quality in her that you connect with immediately. I felt like I’ve known her for years! We had such a good time out and about, and the sun graced the shoot so beautifully. We went out at the perfect time of day, and we captured a bundle of light rays peeking into the lens, which[...]
The Kady’s are back, baby! This time, we went to the lake, and spent some quality time out in the sun. I loved how each of the shots came out, and setting up the trip and the shoot itself was so fun for me (and for my spokesmodels!). Having this awesome group of young ladies excited about modeling and helping me on my shoots is a true blessing, and it allows me to have some time for complete cre[...]
